Chapter 467: Chapter 465 Black Rotten Wood Chapter 467: Chapter 465 Black Rotten Wood “So, how should we investigate?” Welly spread his hands, helpless.
“Actually, Zulu had died long before the ti reversal.”
“Wait a minute, are you saying Zulu was dead before the ti reversal?” Welly stared at him intently.
“Yes,” Pei Xuan replied.
Welly furrowed his brows, then began to search the ground until he saw a few golden grains of sand and breathed a sigh of relief, “At least my son is safe.”
Sally had called her son away, clearly indicating that if Welly couldn’t find the real culprit, she wouldn’t return his son. Therefore, he had been sitting here for two days, worrying so much that not a single insect dared to approach him within a ten-mile radius.
“What do you an?” Pei Xuan was puzzled.
“Who else died before the ti reversal but is still alive now?” Welly asked.
Pei Xuan frowned, “Rong Ruo, Xiaoqi’s biological Father Beast. He is now the Crown Prince of the Southern District.”
“Him?” Rong Ruo was surprised, “He has captivated Moru’s heart and is thinking about the fourth crusade in the divine war.”
“Oh. Who won the third divine war?”
“A mber of the Qilin Clan descended to the Divine Realm, now they should be in the Demon Realm.”
“What died in the Asura Realm?”
“A Spirit-devouring Demon, the Asura Realm’s most inferior evil demon.”
“Are you saying that you deliberately let the Divine Realm win?”
“The divine war is but a ga; whoever takes it seriously loses. The Heavenly Dao wouldn’t let the Evil Divine Beast of the Asura Realm out, nor would it allow the Divine Clan of the Divine Realm to descend to the Lower Realm. It’s better to dredge rather than block, giving a jujube here and there to stabilize all realms.”
“What’s the point of the Divine Realm instigating a divine war?”
“To look for an heir. The Ancient Divine Clan seeks females who can bear their progeny, just like Yanyan.”
“Why is it hard for the Divine Clan to continue their lineage?”
“Heavenly Dao has changed the rules and has been weakening the Divine Clan.”
“Weakening the Divine Clan?”
“The original Ancient Gods, also known as the Chaos Divine Clan, had divine powers that could change heaven and earth. Later, so of those Ancient Gods either fell into slumber or beca part of the cosmos. Then ca the Ancient God Clan, who, while they could live as long as heaven and earth, had weakened divine powers, but there were still a few forbidden techniques that could affect heaven and earth.”
“Is Qing Linghuan an Ancient Divine Beast?” Pei Xuan had heard from Sally.
“How should I put it? If you say he is a Chaos Divine Beast, that’s true, and if you say he is from Ancient Tis, that’s also true. He has Chaos Elental Power in him, but he was born in Ancient Tis. But among heaven and earth, he was the only one… now there are three.”
“Yanyan bore him a pair of twins.”
“That’s right. His divine powers and soul root are within his Divine Status, as long as the Divine Status is not extinguished, he will live forever. Even if his body is destroyed, he can be reborn.”
Pei Xuan rembered the Nine Heavens Kunpeng currently pregnant in Sally’s womb, “And You Hao?”
“He is a descendant of the Chaos Divine Clan, also can be considered a Chaos Beast, but his divine powers are not as potent as the first generation. He is quite similar to Qing Linghuan, the two probably grew up in the sa era,” Welly said, his gaze shifting to Xiaohao, who was still searching for clues nearby, “Just like them.”
“How about you? It feels like you know so much you must be more than ordinary.” Pei Xuan had always been unable to see through Welly; he called Ming Linyuan ‘fourth brother’, was a mber of the Human Clan, and then suddenly beca the Asura King. This man’s secrets seed even deeper than Qing Linghuan’s.
Welly responded, “Just a bystander.”
Seeing that he did not wish to elaborate, Pei Xuan did not press further, “She was most fond of Zulu. His death must have had a profound impact on her.”
“I thought it was Zi Qi.”
“The bias towards Zi Qi was because he provided her with what she sought.
All things and all clans in the world act for gain; Yanyan, originally a female of the Rat Clan, was born weak and sought strength for survival, which everyone understands.
But once she had her own strength, she would no longer think of relying on others but would seek to control. Zi Qi, as the Beast Emperor, couldn’t give her that sense of control.
Frans always catered to Sally’s wishes, he has the most children, which is where his wisdom lies.
In fact, although Yanyan seems indifferent to everything, her nature is very domineering; you might consider it further.”
“Playing hard to get?”
“Pretty much. Qing Linghuan and she had a falling-out, the ti you beca a scapegoat, and in the end, didn’t she willingly return to her side?”
“Because of the child, right? Yanyan must have promised to continue bearing him Little Sky Foxes.”
“That’s a possibility. However, considering Qing Linghuan’s pride, there must be more to it than just lowering his head.”
“More?”
“I don’t believe you dislike how she is in bed. They say it’s for the sake of lineage, but sotis it’s just a craving for that montary satisfaction of desire.”
“…”
“You take your ti to investigate; I’ll take my son to the Imperial Palace. There might be other clues. Give so of your Sound Transmission Talismans.”
“Sure, thanks for your trouble.” Welly took out a dozen or so Sound Transmission Talismans from the Different Space.
After receiving them, Pei Xuan called to Xiaohao, “Son, go find your Uncle Zi and sister Xiaoqi.”
As he finished speaking, he transford into the Golden-eyed Black Panther Beast.
Xiaohao hopped and skipped onto his back, then waved his fuzzy, big paws at Welly, “Goodbye, Uncle Wen.”
“Sure, another day I’ll bring Little Fengning to play with you.”
“You must co~”
Carrying it, Pei Xuan left like a bolt of lightning.
Welly stood up and rubbed a few grains of sand between his fingers, “Black Rotten Wood.”
…
Beast Emperor’s Palace.
Zi Qi rarely lost his composure, looking dejected.
“I was wondering why she acted that way that day. Turns out, right after I spoke of harboring ill will against Zulu, he died.”
“…” Pei Xuan was speechless, “Trouble cos from careless talk.”
“Indeed, it’s a warning to others. Now, I’ve been practically banished to the cold palace,” Zi Qi said self-mockingly, picking up the teacup on the table, then setting it down for a cup of strong liquor instead.
“Get so, too,” Pei Xuan said.
Zi Qi tossed him a small pot, “The unluckiest one should be Welly, the bla ca out of nowhere, and even his child was summoned away.”
“But it seems he discovered sothing; there should be a clue,” replied Pei Xuan. “What concerns more is that he asked who had died before the ti reversal but is still alive now?”
“Before the ti reversal? Could soone be targeting these people… Rong Ruo!” Zi Qi’s face changed dramatically.
Recalling what he had just said, Pei Xuan suggested, “Looks like you’ll have to make a trip to the Southern District. Now that Zulu is dead, if Rong Ruo is also dead, she’ll probably suspect you again. After all, there’s Xiaoqi, and you’ve ntioned the idea of leaving legacy for the son in the past.”
“Indeed,” Zi Qi replied with a wry smile, “I do have to visit the Southern District. The Beast Emperor there is preparing to abdicate to the Crown Prince, who is also getting married soon, and I’ve received an invitation.”
“Shall I accompany you?”
“What about Xiaohao?”
“He wants to attend Divine Beast Academy for a few days; he can go with Putao and the others. I’ll speak to Zong Silu about it later.”
“Okay, Ming Linyuan and the Southern District have always done business together. Before you arrived, he wrote to , saying he’s going to the Southern District for the wedding and coronation ceremony.”
“We’ll et there then. Co to think of it, if what Welly said is true and the person who killed Zulu is settling scores with those who survived before the ti reversal, and Rong Ruo could be a target, what about Rong Wu?”
“At that ti, you and Sili were dead, yet he was still alive. Plus, he was the last person Yanyan was with when she started wandering with the kids.”
“…What’s Rong Wu’s beast form?”
“Blue Qilin Deer.”
